Celebrating X-Men Films And Beyond

Nicholas Hoult on how much filming he has left for X-MEN: DARK PHOENIX and Beast’s “very different” role.

Nicholas Hoult gave ET Canada the scoop on how much filming he has left for X-MEN: DARK PHOENIX, saying “We’ve got another four weeks or so to go.”

This will be Hoult’s fourth time portraying Hank McCoy aka Beast. His original contract with 20th Century Fox was fulfilled with X-MEN: APOCALYPSE, so what made him eager to return for another installment in the successful film series?

“It’s a very different for Beast this time. That was part of the appeal for doing the movie, for me. Simon Kinberg, who wrote it, is directing this time and he had great ideas for where he wanted the character to go, so it’s exciting.”

“Dark Phoenix” flies into theaters on November 2, 2018.

Thanks to Universo X-Men for the heads up!
